Even when my life has been busy lately, I still love makeup and follow the new lauches -in particular Chanel. Ever since Lisa Eldridge posted a wonderful makeup look on Keira Knightley I fell in love with two things: orange lips and Illusion d'Ombre New Moon. Fortunately, Chanel Summer 2014 has been launched and I was able to get my hands on New Moon.

Even when it's not that different from previous Illusion d'Ombre launched -I find the shade quite similar to Fatal as you will see in further swatches- I totally love the sparkles. They are delicate and fine, definitely nobody does sparkles like Chanel. Comparison swatches with other Illusion d'Ombre and with Givenchy top coat cream eyeshadow, so you can see the difference in sparkles.

Here are 2 FOTDs with it. I included Dior Fusion Mono Cosmos to add some depth in one of them -even when I didn't love it at first, I found it's a great shade to add depth to other shades. Eyeliner is a combo of Guerlain liquid eyeliner and Chanel Stylo Yeux Noir Intense. On cheeks it's Ere Perez Bondi blush and for lips, I filled them in with Chanel Orange Intense lip liner and then applied Sunny Glossimer on top -that one is also from the Summer collection- on the other FOTD it's only Sunny Glossimer.

I’ve been a beauty junkie before beauty blogs became that popular. I’ve always loved HE makeup, since my mom gave me as a gift my first dior quint and gloss. Many friends and acquaintances asked me for makeup recommendations and sometimes even to do their makeup. So just one day, I decided to share my thoughts and experience by writing a blog.
